This guy is good, he went out his way to answer my questions when I emailed him. As busy as he is he still found time to reply and help me trouble shoot some problems. This will be a great automotive locksmith channel coming soon! Thank you !
obviously you bypassed or immobilized VATS and or PassLock security or a 2000 wouldnt have run for more than a second or two without it getting the ignition and fuel shut off by the ECM. Other than that tidbit it was a very instructional video and I am a mobile mechanic w 30 yrs experience. disclaimer just in case I cant remember if 1 ton and fleet vehcles IE: C6500< are not VATS protected. Sure would like to know so I can file that away in my head. Again great video and I totally dig the key machine. bet that wasnt cheap. Ive been considering picking up some locksmithing just to add to my repotoir. Do you think that its an oversaturated field. Ive already got all the software to program keys for the most part anyway. I cant stand how the few guys in my immediate area gouge people for 400 bucks for what I literally do for 125 bucks and bypass the system and put it on a toggle switch for remote start function to work(wont work correctly w system immobilized. Have a great xmas
THANK YOU!! Worked perfectly! If you don't have a lockpick to bend, you can use one of those plastic toothpicks with the flosser on the other end. It's thin enough to fit and bends on its own to get the job done!
Just wanted to say this saved my ass today on my 2000 s10 blazer. You need a current registration to get a new key from the dealer. My registration expired so rather than go thru the current COVID bullshit at the bmv (standing in line for hours outside in 20 degrees & snowing) I opted for this option except I just popped an aftermarket lock cylinder in & I did not use a key like you did I just used another key from another s10 or blazer I had. I had 8 other keys laying around (yeah I’ve had a lot of s10s lol) and used the one that went in the ignition the most. Was done in less than 20 minutes! Thank you sir!! You earned a sub from me!
Broo thank you!!! I watched your 10 minute video and I was in my truck in under 9 minutes after acquiring the tools. I made my own juggler key to look like yours and it worked. Thanks man!’ Thanks a ton
I think one of the main problems with this fix, for most people, is even getting to the lock cylinder. Taking the plastic pieces off is tricky and we need instruction on that as well. Thank you for your time and knowledge.
I just want to say thank you for making this video my key was stuck in my ignition and the truck would not crank after watching this video twice I had no issue using a pic set to get the ignition out running to the auto parts store to buy a new ignition for my van you probably just save me $500 from paying a locksmith
Thank you for posting the video. . I’m 40 year mechanic and I have never done a lock cylinder replace without keys on a 2000 suburban. Another close to working similar Chevy key was my jiggler. It worked with the wrong key in there only to turn and remove and replace with new.Stiff mechanics wire and a close Chevy key worked . Without your video I would of had to drill it out, thank you man. Where do you eat lunch iI will set it up one day to send the place you eat 20$ to buy you a nice lunch. I am an hour north of NYC. God bless and thank you sir! You video was a big help!!!!
So you were able to get it out without the keys? Please explain how because I'm trying this in a 2001 jimmy and can't get the ignition out without the keys
My van has been sitting in the Home Depot for two nights because the key wouldn't turn. It seemed like it wasn't going all the way in. Anyway, after watching your vid, I went back over, used this method, and started my van.... Right On!!! I just sent you $20.
Dude thanks for the detailed video. Ordered a $16 jiggler set off Amazon and ground down one of the jigglers to slide in and hit the lock bar. 5 seconds with the jiggler key included in the Amazon kit and it turned over. I tried forever before without shimming the lockbar. Lifesaver, dealer cut me a key that wouldn't work and everyone else told me to drill it out. Couldn't get a locksmith out!
Thank you very much. This worked on my 00 Jimmy. You're a life saver! Ps I used my friends Chevy Silverado key as the jiggle key. Thanks again big dawg 😊
I guess they do not have a pass key chip in the key then. This truck was half missing the tumblers i got it out but it starts and dies loosing the ignition or injectors. Fuel pump cycles on each time notices it also wont shut off when i turned dhe key back each time. Im gonna assume the ignition switch itself is also partially broke.. Loved the video ty very much very good man to help so much.
Mike, instead of disconnecting the battery shift the truck into Drive then turn the ignition to the on position without starting the truck 😎. Great content bro!!!
Excellent video. Thanx! I had to replace a no key Cavalier. Took me a full hour to drill it out in the HOT sun! Too bad I didn't know this 'secret'! Cheers!
Thank you so much for your video it saved my life I bought a new key ignition from rock auto and it didn’t work so I use my old key and used your method and I got it unlocked God bless you thank you so much if I was rich I’d give you money❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
GM really messed up and I'm a fool. Battery dead. My 05 Yukon has only one way in threw the driver's door key lock. But it was jambed and I was locked out. no passenger side key lock and no rear door key lock( nor a optional way to open from inside or to open window). I had to bend door and a long steel bar to open power lock but the battery was dead. Sucks. Finally was able to click the manual lock. Windows are power only with key on. Sucks. My kids can not roll windows down when I'm outside. Center dome light drains battery overnight. Suddenly the Radio clock went to 12:00 every morning drained battery over a few days (since I only drive 2 times a week) so I replaced the radio with a used radio but it was locked. Had to search radio unlock UA-cam. Open radio removed tiny black chip. It worked but the door chime was 5 times louder. Cut the speaker tan wire to driver's door. Fixed that. But next day the radio clock was at 12:00 again. UA-camr said it's my ignition switch. Sucks. Ordered one off of eBay 20 bucks. Took me 4 hours to figure it out with a UA-cam. Waiting to see WTH is going to happen next. GM sucks. Every Chevy van or truck I buy has these issues with alarms power locks power windows grounding wires ECM fail. Chevy vans were the worst for those problems. Follow up: 18 hours later the battery is almost completely dead and I had the radio fuse unplugged and everything else was off. So it looks like I've got a parasitic draw somewhere in the vehicle and I will never find it so I have to unplug the battery every single night.
Yes.To get the top off you just break it off !!! He didn't show that part,but you can see where the plastic stem is with the 4mm bolt head that you have to remove to get the top cover off.Hope he doesn't work on someone's newer vehicle. 😆
Fantastic info mate watched all the videos on cylinder replacement ,they all said and pull it out with key in on position,well shit that was the fuckin problem i couldn’t turn it on to get it out!! then you popped up with your pick an jingle key ,all I had was a cheap little pick from the pound shop-dollar store in USA an it did the trick 😀thanks a million matey from Wales 🏴 Uk
Hey,I lost my keys to my 1998 Mazda millennia.can I drill out the cylinder and then the back pin to pop it out and if so can I then operate it with a screw driver?the ignition is on the dash.please help if u can.
I do have a quick question? I have lost my key?? Will any key work to turn the tumbler to that click position ?? Or since I lost the key how do i over ride it to start my truck?? Im instaliing a transfer case motor and my truck is stuck in 4hi. The new transfer case motor instructions say that the 4wd must be in 2hi to i stall the part?? I have the drive shaft dropped and need to over ride snd manually shift it from 4lo to 2 2hi. But the truck has to be started?? Thank you for any advice you might be able to offer.
im trying to this right now on the same truck. can you tell me why i need to have the battery connected at first to turn the key? my battery is disconnected. my key turns half way and then stops at the on position. it will not turn enough to press down the tab. do i have to connect the battery? i have also removed the 'key in' switch on top to let it turn. and i drilled out the side bar and removed it through the key hole.

I took one extra step because I had no pick and since truck wouldn't start, well. Any way I broke off the outer ring with the 4 notches that are proud of the ring. Then I was able to insert a small Allen key and pretty on the keeper bar and 30 second of Chevy jiggle later, it clicked over. Instead of disconnecting the battery you can just shift to drive once you have it clicked over and it won't try to start when trying to remove the cylinder.
Would this work on a 2001 chevy express? Keyway is B102- can I use Jiggler and a pick to depress side bar, or is like the old Chevy where u gotta remove wheel, lock plate spring ?
It should work for any double sided key ignition for chevy gm buik and caddilac.. just uses a different key .. have i sent you a pair of my jiggler keys?? For new and old style keys??
@@MYKEYSAUTOMOTIVE yea but i can't find them lol they are somewhere around here. I am actually watching your jiggler video now so Ill cut a b102 and b106 according to that video, thanks man
Hi im working on 08 chevy Colorado all keys lost i decoded the door lock cylinder but the ign cylinder has 2 more bitings that i cand find out with my tool max maybe i do something wrong can you help please
We busted out the ignition on a 97 Chevy truck tried to start it up you know it's screwdriver and it wants to start tries to start but acting like it's not getting any fuel and the fuel pumps engaging but not getting no fuel can you help us out
Mate vehicle had one key. Vivaro van. Buttons were bad and remote not working. So programmed two new keys. Threw old in rubbish. All good. 6 weeks later one key not working unlock lock. Then day later second key stopped working. I was thinking it was autels fault. Or keys fault. But in truth as itd been happening before we turned up. It has to be something in the van. Immo maybe. Whats your thoughts?
How do you get the rest of the cylinder out when someone has tried to beat it out with a screwdriver? I bought a parts truck and I wanted to first try and start the engine before pulling it and second possibly use the steering column and replace the lock cylinder but I can't get it to turnover to replace the cylinder.

Ok so went to a Citroen c3. Said immo fault. Tried testing immo with im608 pro and if said immo fault. Nothing else but could not delete. So i went to key relearn and it said success. Car still no start. Scanned and immo fault still there. Customer said how car broke was the key came apart in his pocket. When reassembled car not opening and no start.
@@MYKEYSAUTOMOTIVE when i coded new key in then it started. So other key which was new but obviously had issues, we did nothing with it. Put it straight in the bin. Got to code another key in for the spare in couple days. Also got audi tt 2012 to do now. Picked that job up tonight
I have a 2001 Chevy suburban that someone tried to steal so the area where where you put the pic in at seem to have been hammered now the lock cylinder will not turn to take it out how do I get the lock cylinder out
Do you happen to know how to get the black cap back on it doesn’t have that metal band and it’s flush, Also while removing the top housing I messed with something on the hazard lights which keep going. I can’t get it to stop. It’s my son’s car and I need to fix it.
Hello if u took out the drivers side door lock and put the number from the lock onto your key machine would it cut the key exactly as u cut from the initio?
The door was fairly easy..i used my lishi..... couldved found the bitting to the ignition with instacode ...but the ignition was once changed before ... so it wasnt the same depth cuts as the door... usually when they are non transponders i know the ignition lock cylinder has been replaced already..:((( Thank you for watching!!!

Hi I see that you do not remove the upper column cover bolt out and broked of from the cover everything olse was ok even the removal of the metal ring, thanks for sharing your videos there are very helpful to follow through when needed and learn from mistakes. Veo que no quitas el perno de la cubierta de la columna superior y se rompe de la cubierta. Todo lo demás estaba bien, incluso quitar el anillo de metal. Gracias por compartir tus videos, son muy útiles para seguirlos cuando sea necesario y aprender de los errores.
Hi Thank you for this valuable information you obviously are well versed in your occupation. I have one question is there a place a layman such as I can buy a pick with the green handle such as the one that you have? I am in the process of replacing mine and all I need is a pick to push that little bar in. You are a Godsend, I had no idea what to do. Thanking you in advance for all your help and any info you could provide about a pick to complete the job.
Hey,thank you brother yes,those I actually bought on ebay as lock pick set!! I usually purchase my stuff from americankeysupply..but they need a locksmith license..also I recommend you try to shop at uhs hardware!!highly recommend!!
Question: once the vehicle was able to turn over/crank with the jiggler, can you drive it at that time? Or will car soon die (I’m a female, I don’t know but I’m trying to learn)?
Great video,very helpful.. was wondering why you have to depress that lever with a pick if your using a jiggler key to turn the ignition? Is this absolutely neccessary or does it just make it easier or ? Is this a Chevy specific security feature of sorts? Do any other makes use this as well? I've gotten several ignitions to turn with my jigglers and have never done anything like you do with the pick, but they have also all been done on ford vehicles.. just lookin to learn.. thanks for taking the time to answer my questions..
Yes it makes it easier on these chevy/gm older models.. for the newer high security keys they have this ignition lock removal tool by locktech give those a look !! I just purchased some!!
@@MYKEYSAUTOMOTIVE I'll check that out.. after I cut me a jiggler with a blank made for the blazer and depressed that I had the ignition turned over in about 2.5 seconds. it was a little too easy lol... I appreciate you making the video it helped me out a whole .. one more question if you dont mind.. is it possible to reinstall the lock cylinder without a working key? I tried to put mine back in before getting a key made and cant get it for the life of me.. I assume its because I dont have a real key in it just my jiggler... thanks
@@timmcgillvary9353 I believe its not possible to install it with out the key, since the sidebar only goes in when the key is in the lock cylinder and you need to kinda turn it while your installing it so it can sit in all the way.
@@MYKEYSAUTOMOTIVE That's exactly what I was thinking... I appreciate your quick response and all your help. You must definitely have a new subscriber and I look forward to learning more from all your videos... Keep up the good work and excellent videos!!!! Have a great day. I'm off to have a key cut now..
Thank you , your videos are very informative..By any chance I have a 2016 street triple r and I want to clone and program a new key for the bike. I have the vvdi max pro. Does it work for bikes as well and do you have any videos on that issue ? 🙏thanks 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Amazing video. Had a question once u take the ignition out do you have to use the same one u pull out and make a new key or can u just put a new replacement ignition and key ?
Ok well heres the the thing... i like to just decode and cut to the original ign. lock cylinder when its the same key as the door... so they dont use two keys to operate the door and ignition ... but yes,you can always use a new ignition lock cylinder... the only thing is that, you wont have the same key for the door and ignition.
What if the cylinder been changed out before. Those dont have the keycode on them and the waffers look different on those years without numbers stamped.

I am new to your Channel I have a 2001 GMC Sierra SLE 2 wheel drive 5.3 liter V8 I lost my key what do I do to get my truck to start can I go to the dealership and get a key made up or does it have to have a chip?
Nice video. My question is I just bought a 07 impala SS from Auction, guess it was Stolen. I got the car on by bypassing the starter with a Hot wire. Now that I know the car turns on and engine and transmission is solid. The Key that came with the car locks and unlocks the door. How do I go about Getting a New ignition since the one that is with the car was played with, I can turn the ignition with my hand, so I know it bad. The code on the Ignition shows 312813. Autozone sales ignitions, but don't want to buy it yet, cause idk the order of how the Wafers go. How do I get that info?
@@MYKEYSAUTOMOTIVE So basically you are saying go to Autozone and buy the Ignition lock Cylinder for the impala SS and then match the Wafers from the door lock then that should start the car right up?

There is a longer round about way: you can remove the door cover and remove the door cylinder and take it apart then read or measure pins. Then cut all the spaces you got from the lock and do procedural philing on the last 2 spaces until it turns. The cylinder itself has a metal sheet the can be taken off and read the last spaces but due to how this cylinder is designed I wouldn't recommend it as it can prevent equal tension on the springs causing the bar to not work anymore/get stuck , so i recommend sight reading the last 2 from your progression key and cutting. You should also ask the customer if he used 2 different keys to begin with you can also use a lishi to cross check your depths from the door lock to know if it's different from ignition. Jiggler keys are easy to make or buy in sets but drilling is also an option.i just want to say i hate the design of the ignition cylinder on this vehicle lol and the saturn aura as it's difficult to remove but it's essentially a malibu cylinder and immo

Mike, instead of disconnecting the battery shift the truck into Drive then turn the ignition to the on position without starting the truck 😎.
Great content bro!!!
Yess i agree brother your right!! Thank you!!!🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Rather than disconnecting the battery, you can put the vehicle in reverse. Safety mechanism disables the starter while the vehicle is in gear.
Yea your right thank you ! Or also in drive!
How do you unlock the cylinder to move the shift lever? I'm sure there's a disconnect for that purpose but where is it?

My 05 Yukon has only one way in threw the driver's door key lock. But it was jambed and I was locked out. no passenger side key lock and no rear door key lock( nor a optional way to open from inside or to open window).
I had to bend door and a long steel bar to open power lock but the battery was dead. Sucks. Finally was able to click the manual lock.
Windows are power only with key on. Sucks. My kids can not roll windows down when I'm outside.
Center dome light drains battery overnight. Suddenly the Radio clock went to 12:00 every morning drained battery over a few days (since I only drive 2 times a week)

im trying to this right now on the same truck. can you tell me why i need to have the battery connected at first to turn the key? my battery is disconnected. my key turns half way and then stops at the on position. it will not turn enough to press down the tab. do i have to connect the battery? i have also removed the 'key in' switch on top to let it turn. and i drilled out the side bar and removed it through the key hole.

I took one extra step because I had no pick and since truck wouldn't start, well. Any way I broke off the outer ring with the 4 notches that are proud of the ring. Then I was able to insert a small Allen key and pretty on the keeper bar and 30 second of Chevy jiggle later, it clicked over. Instead of disconnecting the battery you can just shift to drive once you have it clicked over and it won't try to start when trying to remove the cylinder.
Thank you for sharing!!🙏🏼🙏🏼❤️❤️
Would this work on a 2001 chevy express? Keyway is B102- can I use Jiggler and a pick to depress side bar, or is like the old Chevy where u gotta remove wheel, lock plate spring ?
It should work for any double sided key ignition for chevy gm buik and caddilac.. just uses a different key .. have i sent you a pair of my jiggler keys?? For new and old style keys??
@@MYKEYSAUTOMOTIVE yea but i can't find them lol they are somewhere around here. I am actually watching your jiggler video now so Ill cut a b102 and b106 according to that video, thanks man
Love your video bro

Sounds more like a mechanical issue.. its not key related.. that vehicle has no transponder.. whos truck is it?
Another great detailed video!
Thank you thank you!!!
Mate vehicle had one key. Vivaro van. Buttons were bad and remote not working. So programmed two new keys. Threw old in rubbish. All good. 6 weeks later one key not working unlock lock. Then day later second key stopped working. I was thinking it was autels fault. Or keys fault. But in truth as itd been happening before we turned up. It has to be something in the van. Immo maybe.
Whats your thoughts?
Faulty ecu ,faulty immo module.. something electrical
@@MYKEYSAUTOMOTIVE so how to find the fault?
Hi thanks for your information where did you find the little pick tool that you use to put into the hole???
?
Great video
Thank you Dan!!
I changed the ignition cylinder with new set of keys on 2000 escalade. Truck cranks but wont stay on
Might need synchronizing 30min waiting process
@MYKEYSAUTOMOTIVE tried it and no luck. 10 min 10 sec 3 times
Great job!!!
Thank you sir!! 🙏🏼🙏🏼❤️❤️
How do you get the rest of the cylinder out when someone has tried to beat it out with a screwdriver? I bought a parts truck and I wanted to first try and start the engine before pulling it and second possibly use the steering column and replace the lock cylinder but I can't get it to turnover to replace the cylinder.
Drill it out
Hey brother, u putting a lot of info 😂💪

Ok so went to a Citroen c3. Said immo fault. Tried testing immo with im608 pro and if said immo fault. Nothing else but could not delete. So i went to key relearn and it said success. Car still no start. Scanned and immo fault still there.
Customer said how car broke was the key came apart in his pocket. When reassembled car not opening and no start.
Did you try reading the key? Did you program a new key??
@@MYKEYSAUTOMOTIVE when i coded new key in then it started. So other key which was new but obviously had issues, we did nothing with it. Put it straight in the bin. Got to code another key in for the spare in couple days. Also got audi tt 2012 to do now. Picked that job up tonight
How would you get the key cylinder out when stuck in the off position?
Great job amigo
Thank you!!!
Awesome
Is it the same thing for a 2001 Chevy 1500? I bought the truck 3 days ago but it won’t start because the key won’t turn:/
yes it should be!
Who carries the lock lube that you use? I just searched my key supplier and does not look like they have it nor did I see it on amazon.
I order them from americankeysupply.com!! Houdini
I will have to get set up with them
Thanks
I have a 2001 Chevy suburban that someone tried to steal so the area where where you put the pic in at seem to have been hammered now the lock cylinder will not turn to take it out how do I get the lock cylinder out
Drill it out!! Aim for the side bar!
Same thing happened to me I’m trying to figure it out
Thank you god bless you
Thank you God bless
NICE VIDEO
Thank you!!
Thank you
Where can I find the key? I have a 1998 Chevy truck that I lost the key and need to replace the cylinder key switch
Do you happen to know how to get the black cap back on it doesn’t have that metal band and it’s flush, Also while removing the top housing I messed with something on the hazard lights which keep going. I can’t get it to stop. It’s my son’s car and I need to fix it.
Hello if u took out the drivers side door lock and put the number from the lock onto your key machine would it cut the key exactly as u cut from the initio?
Buena información. Saludos
Gracias amigo
Locks.ith just replaced my ignition lock. Chevy S10 1998, now it won't start. It starts but immediately turns off. Any thoughts or guidance please
Will probably need to synchronize new ignition cylinder to steering column 30min programming waiting process
Thanks for your time!.. how did you open the vehicle? Just a wedge?Or do you pick the door?
The door was fairly easy..i used my lishi..... couldved found the bitting to the ignition with instacode ...but the ignition was once changed before ... so it wasnt the same depth cuts as the door... usually when they are non transponders i know the ignition lock cylinder has been replaced already..:(((
Thank you for watching!!!
Does the linkage to transmission need to be hooked up to unlock the steering wheel and egnition then to start it
Same procedure with 2003 Chevy to retrieve a key code ?
Yes!!!
Is this same working and found the key Number ?
Xhorse 005L Machine ?

Hi I see that you do not remove the upper column cover bolt out and broked of from the cover everything olse was ok even the removal of the metal ring, thanks for sharing your videos there are very helpful to follow through when needed and learn from mistakes.
Veo que no quitas el perno de la cubierta de la columna superior y se rompe de la cubierta. Todo lo demás estaba bien, incluso quitar el anillo de metal. Gracias por compartir tus videos, son muy útiles para seguirlos cuando sea necesario y aprender de los errores.
Hey buddy where can I get the pick to press that side bar and the juggler key
Lock pick ebay
Hi Thank you for this valuable information you obviously are well versed in your occupation. I have one question is there a place a layman such as I can buy a pick with the green handle such as the one that you have? I am in the process of replacing mine and all I need is a pick to push that little bar in. You are a Godsend, I had no idea what to do. Thanking you in advance for all your help and any info you could provide about a pick to complete the job.
Hey,thank you brother yes,those I actually bought on ebay as lock pick set!! I usually purchase my stuff from americankeysupply..but they need a locksmith license..also I recommend you try to shop at uhs hardware!!highly recommend!!
Do you have link to the tool that u used to press side bar in?
Question: once the vehicle was able to turn over/crank with the jiggler, can you drive it at that time? Or will car soon die (I’m a female, I don’t know but I’m trying to learn)?
Ok my friend I go my S10 Chevrolet manual 1999 lost MH key need to take out the old one no got Thad key to do it what can do thank you video
Great video,very helpful.. was wondering why you have to depress that lever with a pick if your using a jiggler key to turn the ignition? Is this absolutely neccessary or does it just make it easier or ? Is this a Chevy specific security feature of sorts? Do any other makes use this as well? I've gotten several ignitions to turn with my jigglers and have never done anything like you do with the pick, but they have also all been done on ford vehicles.. just lookin to learn.. thanks for taking the time to answer my questions..
Yes it makes it easier on these chevy/gm older models.. for the newer high security keys they have this ignition lock removal tool by locktech give those a look !! I just purchased some!!
@@MYKEYSAUTOMOTIVE
I'll check that out.. after I cut me a jiggler with a blank made for the blazer and depressed that I had the ignition turned over in about 2.5 seconds. it was a little too easy lol... I appreciate you making the video it helped me out a whole .. one more question if you dont mind.. is it possible to reinstall the lock cylinder without a working key? I tried to put mine back in before getting a key made and cant get it for the life of me.. I assume its because I dont have a real key in it just my jiggler... thanks
@@timmcgillvary9353 I believe its not possible to install it with out the key, since the sidebar only goes in when the key is in the lock cylinder and you need to kinda turn it while your installing it so it can sit in all the way.
@@MYKEYSAUTOMOTIVE
That's exactly what I was thinking... I appreciate your quick response and all your help. You must definitely have a new subscriber and I look forward to learning more from all your videos... Keep up the good work and excellent videos!!!! Have a great day. I'm off to have a key cut now..
Thank you brother welcome aboard!
If you didn't pull the lock could you have decoded the ignition lock with a lishi tool and cut the key with that? Thank you.

Do you happen to have a video showing how to rekey a new one of these cylinders to match a original key?
I dont sorry
Thank you , your videos are very informative..By any chance I have a 2016 street triple r and I want to clone and program a new key for the bike. I have the vvdi max pro. Does it work for bikes as well and do you have any videos on that issue ? 🙏thanks 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Where can I buy that tool sir? The jiggling thing thank you !
Email me lilroxx001@yahoo.com
Amazing video. Had a question once u take the ignition out do you have to use the same one u pull out and make a new key or can u just put a new replacement ignition and key ?
Ok well heres the the thing... i like to just decode and cut to the original ign. lock cylinder when its the same key as the door... so they dont use two keys to operate the door and ignition ... but yes,you can always use a new ignition lock cylinder... the only thing is that, you wont have the same key for the door and ignition.
What if the cylinder been changed out before. Those dont have the keycode on them and the waffers look different on those years without numbers stamped.
Someone tried to steal my GMC and left what looks like a blocked key lock cylinder in it. How do I get that thing out?
Drill out the lock

Hey mike, look looking at 08 Chevy Aveo for all keys lost, you think I can use this method to find the key code stamped on the ignition cylinder?
If the ignition is on the steering column yes ..if its on the dash no...👎
@@MYKEYSAUTOMOTIVE nice Awesome I'll find out when I get there. Any advice if it's in the dash? Just lishi it?
I am new to your Channel I have a 2001 GMC Sierra SLE 2 wheel drive 5.3 liter V8 I lost my key what do I do to get my truck to start can I go to the dealership and get a key made up or does it have to have a chip?
Watch my vid
Nice video. My question is I just bought a 07 impala SS from Auction, guess it was Stolen. I got the car on by bypassing the starter with a Hot wire.
Now that I know the car turns on and engine and transmission is solid. The Key that came with the car locks and unlocks the door.
How do I go about Getting a New ignition since the one that is with the car was played with, I can turn the ignition with my hand, so I know it bad.
The code on the Ignition shows 312813. Autozone sales ignitions, but don't want to buy it yet, cause idk the order of how the Wafers go. How do I get that info?
Remove the door lock cylinder and count the pins and rekey the new ign lock cylinder to the cuts on the door!
@@MYKEYSAUTOMOTIVE So basically you are saying go to Autozone and buy the Ignition lock Cylinder for the impala SS and then match the Wafers from the door lock then that should start the car right up?
Look up the code by instacode and get the bitting from there it should be easier!!
@@MYKEYSAUTOMOTIVE Just how much you think the Dealer would charge me to make me a key and ignition lock cylinder?
Any VIDEOS on Chevy Ignition Repair
Coming soon my friend stay posted!! Thank you for watching!!
What is the meaning of 9279A?it's on the top of ignition.could we use that numbers as key code?thank you

How do you change that same Ignition to Indore switch if you lost the key And you don't have a jigger key how-do-you-do it then
If i dont have a jiggler key?? Id drill it out!!
There is a longer round about way: you can remove the door cover and remove the door cylinder and take it apart then read or measure pins. Then cut all the spaces you got from the lock and do procedural philing on the last 2 spaces until it turns. The cylinder itself has a metal sheet the can be taken off and read the last spaces but due to how this cylinder is designed I wouldn't recommend it as it can prevent equal tension on the springs causing the bar to not work anymore/get stuck , so i recommend sight reading the last 2 from your progression key and cutting. You should also ask the customer if he used 2 different keys to begin with you can also use a lishi to cross check your depths from the door lock to know if it's different from ignition. Jiggler keys are easy to make or buy in sets but drilling is also an option.i just want to say i hate the design of the ignition cylinder on this vehicle lol and the saturn aura as it's difficult to remove but it's essentially a malibu cylinder and immo
What about the anti theft system? Could that not affect this
In some cases yes
This video worked for me except when i push pin down to pull switch out but does not come out any reason why?
